TNG – DARA Results from CQ WW SSB 2022

Last week many of the TNG group worked on the tv that was donated and learned what kind of components are used

 

This week Steve, AE8AT, and others participants will tell us how DARA did and what problems they had.  

 

A 55-inch TV was dropped off by an 88 yr young man as not working.  Lets see what is wrong and if we can fix it.

 

Even though masks are not required feel free to wear a mask if you feel more comfortable.  There will be some wearing mask so you will not be the only one.

 

PLEASE if you are having any of the COVID symptoms DO NOT come to the clubhouse. 

 

Small Computer SIG * Nov 12th *  

The joint Dayton Amateur Radio Association / Dayton Microcomputer Association Single Board Computer Special Interest Group will have its next meeting on November 12th at 2:00pm. SIG meetings are held at the Dayton Amateur Radio Association club house located at 6619 Bellefontaine Road, Huber Heights, OH 45424. You do not need to be a member to take part in this activity.

 

At the November meeting we will look at time keeping on the Raspberry Pi SBC without a real time clock. We will look at an add on real time clock. And using a GPS to get time and date.

 

We now have a groups.io message area for the Single Board Computer SIG. The message is currently set up for limited access. Just send a message asking for access to the message system. The Message system is named “sbc-sig”. You can search groups.io for “sbc-sig” or go to the message system with the full address “ https://groups.io/g/sbc-sig”
